Shikhar Dhawan (India Captain): "Yeah, absolutely, it is not in our control. We cannot help it out as we can't get it started without the rain getting stopped. We now hope for a better third game. Yeah, it was quite a surprise when I walked out to bat. I thought it would swing better than the last game. But to my surprise, it didn't do much and was a good pitch to bat on.
We wanted the sixth bowler. So, hence Deepak Hooda came in for Sanju Samson. And, yeah, Deepak Chahar gets more swing, so he came in for Shardul Thakur. And yes, we wanted to try him out here as well.
Yeah, absolutely, all the senior players are resting. So it was a great time to test these youngsters. These players have shown up time and time again. Indirectly, leading this young team feels me so young (laughs).
It is good exposure for them to play in New Zealand and West Indies. It is a good exposure travelling to these part of the world. See, for example, Umran Malik is giving his best to show his talent here. It is a great opportunity for all these boys to show their worth. Yeah, we would love to come with a good intent again in the next game and hope we do well to level the series."
